Study Island

Mrs. Walker and I receive weekly reports of the students taking Study Island quizzes and their results. It is fascinating how the percentages match the FCAT percentages in math, reading , and science that Mrs. Walker showed us from students' past FCAT records. By using Study Island regularly until the FCAT in March, hopefully these numbers will improve. I received two reports over the holidays, and many students utilized the program over the break. I am excited by the numbers of students using the program, however, only a handful of teachers have made class lists of their students. It is through the class lists that you can see reports of your students' progress. Through the reports, you can see what each individual student is struggling with or on what they are excelling. Remember, you can make any number of class lists. You can divide your class by levels, reading groups, or make just one class list. Please take a moment to create your class list so that you can take full advantage of this program. I have entered all students, k-5 into the database. Thanks!
